5 // Responsible for generating packets on behalf of a QuicConnection.
6 // Packets are serialized just-in-time. Control frames are queued.
7 // Ack and Feedback frames will be requested from the Connection
8 // just-in-time. When a packet needs to be sent, the Generator
9 // will serialize a packet and pass it to QuicConnection::SendOrQueuePacket()
11 // The Generator's mode of operation is controlled by two conditions:
13 // 1) Is the Delegate writable?
15 // If the Delegate is not writable, then no operations will cause
16 // a packet to be serialized. In particular:
17 // * SetShouldSendAck will simply record that an ack is to be sent.
18 // * AddControlFrame will enqueue the control frame.
19 // * ConsumeData will do nothing.
21 // If the Delegate is writable, then the behavior depends on the second
24 // 2) Is the Generator in batch mode?
26 // If the Generator is NOT in batch mode, then each call to a write
27 // operation will serialize one or more packets. The contents will
28 // include any previous queued frames. If an ack should be sent
29 // but has not been sent, then the Delegate will be asked to create
30 // an Ack frame which will then be included in the packet. When
31 // the write call completes, the current packet will be serialized
32 // and sent to the Delegate, even if it is not full.
34 // If the Generator is in batch mode, then each write operation will
35 // add data to the "current" packet. When the current packet becomes
36 // full, it will be serialized and sent to the packet. When batch
37 // mode is ended via |FinishBatchOperations|, the current packet
38 // will be serialzied, even if it is not full.
40 // FEC behavior also depends on batch mode. In batch mode, FEC packets
41 // will be sent after |max_packets_per_group| have been sent, as well
42 // as after batch operations are complete. When not in batch mode,
43 // an FEC packet will be sent after each write call completes.
45 // TODO(rch): This behavior should probably be tuned. When not in batch
46 // mode, we should probably set a timer so that several independent
47 // operations can be grouped into the same FEC group.
49 // When an FEC packet is generated, it will be send to the Delegate,
50 // even if the Delegate has become unwritable after handling the
51 // data packet immediately proceeding the FEC packet.
